How much money to take?

[britincgn]

I live in Germany and have invited my sister to come to WDW with me.
She called tonight and asked how much money she would need and although I have been to WDW many times myself I did not know what to answer.
Also she does not want to use a credit card so what is the best option ,Travellers checks?
What % TC and what% cash would you advise?

Any other options ?Please Help

All tickets have already been paid for but still not sure about the rest , they are not big eaters but what I know my first time I wanted to buy everything
Never used TC myself is it easy to use them in WDW as we will probably not be leaving the propety at any time ?

We used T?Cs in July with no problem - we were sometimes asked for id as there has been a lot of forgeries there. One restuarant offsite refused to take them due to this!

in 16+ visits never had a problem with TC`s.always show id when cashing them,and avoid high denominations offsite
Just cash at front dest no problem

That seems alot for food per day, did you mean dollars?

That's not too bad, considering breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, drink etc.

3 meals out here with drinks would cost me about £50! Same meals would probbaly cost £25 there.
